dc.description.abstract | We review the evidence demonstrating the interstellar scintillation (ISS) is the principal mechanism responsible for the intra-day variability (IDV) seen at cm wavelengths in many compact, flat-spectrum extra-galactic radio sources. The presence of ISS in a radio source implies the presence of microarcsecond structure in the source. We examine the implications of such compact structure, and suggest that these ultra-compact radio scintillators may form a significant part of the next generation International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF) sources because of their high level of compactness and positional stability. | en_US |
